Description
Translation in Cascading Crises explores the critical role of multilingual communication in crisis situations. Effective communication is essential in these contexts, yet language barriers often persist despite advances in technology.
The contributors to this volume represent diverse geographical and disciplinary backgrounds, reflecting the complex nature of crisis situations worldwide. Drawing on disaster studies research, the book aims to stimulate a broad debate on the role of translation in facilitating communication during cascading crises.
